Nonsense, the time spent on teaching them how to handle the cms is
wasted time, especially if one uses it for a small site like the one in
the example.

I do teach my clients how to use a few elements, copy and paste, where
they have to put what and how to upload it. Thats it, it aint no rocket
science.

Don't try to make your client believe it is, just because you want to
make it yourself easy and earn quick bucks.

Using a cms system for a small site like the one in the example is
completely ridiculous, period.
